LOL DS Available Online Only

By Jorge Ba-oh 24.04.2008 6

Agetec have decided to release the upcoming Archime DS (LOL) as a buy-online only. The quirky DS game will not hit retail, but instead will only ship from the company's official pages.

We love LOL, and think it's a completely unique game, however we think it'll be tough to sell into the retailers. So we decided to release it exclusively online. Hopefully it catches some attention like Electroplankton did. LOL will be available through Agetec.com on the day of its release, and we're currently looking for an online retailer to do exclusive pre-orders with.

Hiro Fukuoka, producer at Agetec.

LOL will be available from the Official website from May 30th 2008.

Gah. I thought from the headline that this would be about it having online.

But it's still only local multiplayer though. And so if I bought it it *might* be played *once*.

It's going to be shit and you jolly well know it.

Infact I still thought that until you pointed that out...

Ah well, definitely not buying it now.

Cheers guys, I've updated the article/title Smilie

Weird way of marketing it. A good idea would be to charge a small sum for a download for the M4/DS rom readers.

But... it's just Pictochat, isn't it?

Pretty much, which is why it's uber-budget-priced and not going to be in shops.

JB, I think that would be illegal.
